Justin Tuttle
I recently joined the amazing team here at Sweetwater in early 2023. I come with the background of working as a worship leader and music director in a variety of churches. I love helping fellow musicians and creatives achieve their own dreams and goals. I'm a natural introvert but love leading from a stage, being a part of something bigger than myself, and bringing joy to others. My personal musical passions are in sound design and incorporating soft synths and my own recorded backing tracks in live music.
As your personal contact here at Sweetwater, please let me know anytime I can offer help or advice.

Where are you from originally?
I and my family are from Northwest Indiana, so we didn't have much of a drive to move to Fort Wayne!

Why did you first apply for a job at Sweetwater?
Having worked as a worship leader and music director for a number of churches, I love bringing people from a diversity of backgrounds together, from beginner to professional, to form a cohesive whole and accomplish a singular mission. When I was job hunting and my own Sales Engineer suggested that I apply to Sweetwater, it was a natural fit to devote my time to helping other musicians from a variety of backgrounds to achieve their musical dreams here at Sweetwater.

How did you first get into music?
My parents forced me to learn an instrument in sixth grade. I think I just landed on trumpet because my grandfather was a music educator and had a spare trumpet of his that was going unused. Although I just wanted to read and wasn't too happy about the idea at the time, I couldn't thank them enough today.
